.TH PAM_AUTHTOK_STORE 7 "Jan 26, 2004"
.SH NAME
pam_authtok_store \- password management module
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
\fBpam_authtok_store.so.1\fR
.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
\fBpam_authtok_store\fR provides functionality to the PAM password management
stack. It provides one function: \fBpam_sm_chauthtok()\fR.
.sp
.LP
When invoked with flags set to \fBPAM_UPDATE_AUTHTOK\fR, this module updates
the authentication token for the user specified by \fBPAM_USER\fR.
.sp
.LP
The authentication token \fBPAM_OLDAUTHTOK\fR can be used to authenticate the
user against repositories that need updating (\fBNIS\fR, \fBLDAP\fR). After
successful updates, the new authentication token stored in \fBPAM_AUTHTOK\fR is
the user's valid password.
.sp
.LP
This module honors the \fBPAM_REPOSITORY\fR item, which, if set, specifies
which repository is to be updated. If \fBPAM_REPOSITORY\fR is unset, it follows
the \fBnsswitch.conf\fR(5).
.sp
.LP
The following option can be passed to the module:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBdebug\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 17n
\fBsyslog\fR(3C) debugging information at the \fBLOG_DEBUG\fR level
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBserver_policy\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 17n
If the account authority for the user, as specified by \fBPAM_USER\fR, is a
server, do not encrypt the authentication token before updating.
.RE

.SH ERRORS
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBPAM_SUCCESS\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 18n
Successfully obtains authentication token
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBPAM_SYSTEM_ERR\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 18n
Fails to get username, service name, old password or new password, user name
null or empty, or password null.

.SH NOTES
.sp
.LP
The interfaces in \fBlibpam\fR(3LIB) are MT-Safe only if each thread within the
multi-threaded application uses its own \fBPAM\fR handle.
.sp
.LP
The \fBpam_unix\fR(7) module is no longer supported. Similar functionality is
provided by \fBpam_authtok_check\fR(7), \fBpam_authtok_get\fR(7),
\fBpam_authtok_store\fR(7), \fBpam_dhkeys\fR(7), \fBpam_passwd_auth\fR(7),
\fBpam_unix_account\fR(7), \fBpam_unix_auth\fR(7), and
\fBpam_unix_session\fR(7).
.sp
.LP
If the \fBPAM_REPOSITORY\fR \fIitem_type\fR is set and a service module does
not recognize the type, the service module does not process any information,
and returns \fBPAM_IGNORE\fR. If the \fBPAM_REPOSITORY\fR \fIitem_type\fR is
not set, a service module performs its default action.
